Keywords: church schools; denominational education statistics; index of segregation; pedagogical added value

Summary/Abstract: The paper collects time-series educational statistics for church-run schools, and reviews some of their social and contextual characteristics and effectiveness. The study is based on a merged file of the National Competency Assessment, and reflects on the expansion of the church-run educational sphere in terms of regional and denominational statistics, and of school composition. One of the basic questions of the paper concerns how the expansion of the church-rum educational sphere strenghtens the process of regional segregation. The analysis also tries to compare state-run schools and church-run educational institutions in terms of their pedagogical added values.
